Getting your exam and/or exam info to the Campus Service Center/DRC for proctoring

For each exam request submitted by a student in your course, you will receive an email with a link (the link will be at the bottom--scoroll down!) – please use that link to complete a short form for each quiz or exam to provide us with the information we need to properly proctor your test. If your exam is on paper (not an online test), you can also upload it directly to our secure site and get immediate confirmation that it was submitted.

If you have further questions after watching the short videos linked above, please ask Justin or Elisa—we’re happy to help!
